[R] new R-user needs help

Dear all,

I have a dataset 

Exp name id x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 
1   a    1  23 24 23 22 30
1   b    2  25 26 27 23 24
1   c    3  32 19 23 25 28
2   a    4  28 32 24 26 27
2   b    5  23 24 25 26 28
2   c    6  23 31 30 38 23
3   a    7  24 25 31 27 29
3   b    8  28 25 26 32 28 
3   c    9  21 31 28 23 29

where each name a,b and c is repeated three times.
Now I want to calculate the the averages of a,b and c
over the three experiments for each x. For example for
x1 I want to calculate the average of a like

[a(from exp1) + a(exp2)+ a(exp3)]/3= (23+28+24)/3

How can I do that ?

Thanks for your help,
Regards,

Antonia

try something like the following:

sapply(split(dat[paste("x", 1:5, sep = "")], dat$name),
mean)


Best,

Hi,

you can use aggregate.

aggregate(data[,c(3:8)],list(data$name),mean)

should give you what you want.

Ciao,
Stefano

try this,
   if your data frame name is "tab"
   mean.tab  = data.frame (meanA = mean(tab[tab$name == 'a' ,4:8]),
meanB
   =   mean(tab[tab$name  ==  'b',4:8]),  meanC  =  mean(tab[tab$name  =
'c',4:8]))
   mean.tab
   good luck

Hi,


use aggregate

aggregate(dataset[,-c(1:3)],list(dataset$name),mean)

should give you what you need

The solution given by Dimitris may seem mysterious fo
a "new R-user". More transparent is the following kind
of thing.

Suppose (as in Dimitris' solution) your data are in a
dataframe called "dat".

Then, for example,

  mean(dat$x1[dat$name=="a"])
  [1] 25

which selects the values of x1 for which the name is "a".

You can similarly cycle through all the variables x1,...,x5:

  for(i in (4:8)){print(mean(dat[(name=="a"),i]))}
  [1] 25
  [1] 27
  [1] 26
  [1] 25
  [1] 28.66667

where dat[(name=="a"),i] selects rows of 'dat' according to
the value of 'name' and columns according to values of i
(x1: i=4, ... ,x5: i=8).

This more direct and transparent way of defining access to
different elements of the dataframe makes it much easier
to carry out different kinds of calculation.

Hoping this helps,
Ted.
